Why we read Literature

When you read a book or a story that was written long ago, you feel that you have been carried away into the time that the story was created. Literature is very diffferent around the world, every country has its different stories, even if they were written hundreds of years ago, or a few years ago.Literature written in the past is very important for us know, because it helps us understand what was going on during the time that the story was written. It allows us to know what our country or other countries were going through, and how it affected a persono or a specific group of people. Reading about the past may help you understand why a country has certain customs or why a some people act how they do. Reading might help us in our personal lives by improving our vocabulary, improved analytical thinking, greater tranquility, enhanced smarts, reduces stress, improved memory, and writing skills. With reading improving these skills easily will help our overall health. Reading is important in todays world because it is how we discover new things. Books, magazines and even the Internet are great learning tools which require the ability to read and understand what is read. Reading also develops our imagination. With reading, a person can go anywhere in the world. They can be a king, or an adventurer, or a princess, the possibilities are endless. Non-readers never experience these joys to the same extent.
In today’s world to find out what is going on you can find it in the newspaper by reading and finding new things around you by reading or looking it up on the internet. I think what is happening in today's world that might make this course more relevant to me is the politics happening.
